Fly Fishing Adventures

The Fly Fishing Adventures of Mike and Curtis
By Steve Robbins

Curtis Sledge and Mike Hammer are good friends who love to fly fish. They have been on many fly fishing trips including several misadventures. For example, one summer day Mike, Curtis and this cute young blonde in a brown bikini went fly fishing the coast for redfish. As usual, Mike has a little too much to drink. He gets up to get another beer, loses his balance and falls out of the boat. The young blonde says, “What should we do?" Curtis says, "You better jump in after him, he's been under water for a while, he might need some help." So she jumps in, and after some time, she surfaces. She says, "Curtis, help me get him in the boat." They wrestle Mike back into the boat (he is a big ol boy you know). The girls says, "Oh no... what do we do now, it doesn't look like he's breathing." Curtis says, "You'd better give him mouth to mouth, cuz I sure aint" So she then puts her mouth over Mik'es mouth and starts to blow air into into his cold body. She soon sets up and says, "Whoa, I don't remember Mike having such bad breath." Curtis says, "Come to think of it, I don't think Mike was wearing a three piece suit, either." A few years later, Mike and Curtis went on a fly fishing trip deep into the Colorado wilderness. They hiked for hours and then set up camp. Neither one of them being in the best physical condition (remember, they’re pretty big ol’ boys) they were completely exhausted. They decided to wait until morning to fish. So, after their tent was all set up, they crawled in and fell sound asleep.

A few hours later, Mike wakes up. He then wakes up Curtis and says, "Hey wader breath, look towards the sky and tell me what you see?"

Curtis replies, "I see millions of stars."

"OK… What does that tell you?" asked Mike.

Curtis ponders for a minute, and then says, "Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially millions of planets.

Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.

Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past two in the morning.
